It is my intention in this article, to explain as simply as possile, how music scales are formed; this is a it of music technology. The dreaded music scales; ut nothing for you to worry aout. Scales have een the curse of every young music student for generations. But they do not have to e. There is an easier way to learn your scales. However if you wish to ecome a true musician you will have to practice them, rememer Practice makes musicians. If you can understand what I have put elow, you will have no prolem learning how to play music. This article is numer six in a set of seven, each one teaching you a little it more music technology, moving you closer to your first song in the seventh article. Let’s have some Fun.

1. Anyway check this out. We have in the previous article, dealt with the scale of C major. Lets just recap here; if you are familiar with White keys and can point out the C note to the left of the middle twin lack keys; start at this C note and go right to the next C note, for instance going up the keyoard, all white keys; C, D, E, F, G, A, B, C.

Therefore from C, to D, we count two notes; from D, to E, we count two notes; from E, to F, we see only one note; from F, to G, two notes; from G, to A, two notes; A, to B, two notes; and from B, to C, again only one note; This shows up as “2/2/1/2/2/2/1. This is a very important sequence and as you see quite easy to rememer, I suggest you do. Now if we apply that pattern or sequence, to start on any note on your keyoard you will find your scale immediately, lack or white keys.

2. So, if we apply it to say, B flat, which looks like this B, and is the lack key left of B, we would see our scale of B major. This would of course include lack and white keys. Try it, make a note of your start position then count the sequence. If we start with F#, that
